With color printers, it has become much easier to print pictures that have a considerable amount of quality to them. On top of that, now that there is inexpensive picture paper available, the quality of picture that can be printed is even greater. So long as the printer is of a good enough quality that it can handle specific details, the pictures that come out of it will look intense.

Printing Pictures

The first step is to open the Windows Photo Gallery program. You can find this under all programs. Then, pick the actual picture that you want to print. Click open and then select the image that you want to print. If you want to have multiple different pictures print, hit the control button and then select each one. Then on the gallery, there will be a scroll feature so you can go from picture to picture.Print Pictures

Now that the pictures are up on the screen, add the type of paper you want to print on to the printer. It is better to use photo paper because then the pictures will look like actual photographs. However, you can use simple printing paper and the picture will come out relatively clear.

Once the printer is prepared, hit the print button. Select the printer and the paper size. On top of that, you can also select the number of photos you want, the paper quality and the layout of the picture. These are all details that the printer will use to print a clear, good picture. Hit the print button and then the pictures will print. Because they are pictures, they take a little longer to print than if they were documents, but most printers today can process a picture much faster than when color printers first came out. Once the printing is done, close Windows Photo Gallery and enjoy the photos.
